Surface passivation and functionalisation for mass photometry

Suliana Manley, Jenny Sülzle, Laila Abdelaziz Abdelmoniem Elfeky

Interferometric scattering (iSCAT) microscopy enables the label-free observation of biomolecules. Consequently, single-particle imaging and tracking with the iSCAT-based method known as mass photometry (MP) is a growing area of study. However, establishing ...

Core-shell Structured Chitosan-polyethylenimine Nanoparticles for Gene Delivery: Improved Stability, Cellular Uptake, and Transfection Efficiency

Sandrine Gerber, Laura Camille Louise Nicolle, Perrine Agnes Edith Robin

Gene therapy emerged as a promising treatment option for acquired and inherited diseases. The delivery of nucleic acids relies on vectors that condense and encapsulate their cargo. Especially non-viral gene delivery systems are of increasing interest. Howe ...

Multicomponent Alginate-Derived Hydrogel Microspheres Presenting Hybrid Ionic-Covalent Network and Drug Eluting Properties

Sandrine Gerber, François Rémi Pierre Noverraz, Luca Szabó

The development of multifunctional encapsulation biomaterials could help the translation of cell‐based therapies into standard medical care. One of the major hurdles in the field of encapsulated cell transplantation is the current lack of materials present ...

Fluorinated surfactants in droplet-based microfluidics: Influence of their composition on the properties of emulsion drops

Gianluca Nicolas Etienne

Miniaturization has been a driving force in many areas of science and technology, most notably in the electronics industry. Droplet-based microfluidics, a methode to produce emulsion drops in a controlled way and at high-throughputs, enables the miniaturiz ...

Exploring biochemical pathways for mono-ethylene glycol (MEG) synthesis from synthesis gas

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Meriç Ataman, Noushin Hadadi

Mono-ethylene glycol (MEG) is an important petrochemical with widespread use in numerous consumer products. The current industrial MEG-production process relies on non-renewable fossil fuel-based feedstocks, such as petroleum, natural gas, and naphtha; hen ...

Micro- and nanoscale hierarchical structure of core-shell protein microgels

Giovanni Dietler, Francesco Simone Ruggeri, Raffaele Mezzenga

Protein nanofibrils were first discovered in the context of misfolding and neurodegenerative diseases but have recently been found in naturally occurring functional materials including algal adhesives, bacterial coatings, and even mammalian melanosomes. Th ...

Additives for vaccine storage to improve thermal stability of adenoviruses from hours to months

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Valeria Cagno, Randy Patrick Carney

Up to 80% of the cost of vaccination programmes is due to the cold chain problem (that is, keeping vaccines cold). Inexpensive, biocompatible additives to slow down the degradation of virus particles would address the problem. Here we propose and character ...

X-ray irradiation synthesis of PEG-coated Au-Pd nanoparticles

Giorgio Margaritondo

We demonstrate that the combination of x-ray irradiation and capping by polyethylene glycol (PEG) produces excellent flexibility in controlling the structure of Au-Pd nanoparticles while preserving their catalytic performance. We specifically adopted two d ...

PEGylated DOTA-AHA-Based Gd-III Chelates: A Relaxometric Study

Lothar Helm, Shima Karimi

Three PEGylated derivatives of 6-amino-2-[4,7,10-tris(carboxymethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetrazacyclododec-1-yl]hexanoic acid (DOTA-AHA) with different molecular weights were prepared and characterized. Their Gd-III chelates were studied in aqueous solution through v ...

MULTIFUNCTIONALIZED SPIONs FOR NUCLEAR TARGETING: CELL UPTAKE AND GENE EXPRESSION

Heinrich Hofmann, Alke Fink, Jatuporn Salaklang

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are used in many biological applications, which necessitate intracellular targeting. Here, we investigate intracellular localization and gene expression in HeLa cells after treatment with functionalized S ...
